- the method of increasing the blast air volume into the building is not limited to the increasing method of the blast air volume into the respective rooms, and it is also effective to send air also to a space under floor and an attic space where airproof and heat insulating properties against outside of the room are secured, and to provide an opening between the under floor space and the attic space and the return compartment to circulate conditioned air. Since the air conditioning load of the building itself is not varied even if the number of ventilation locations in the building and the blast air volume of the blower are too much, the above method does not affect the air-conditioning ability almost at all.
- a floor area of the building 1 is about 97.7 m 2
- a height of the ceiling is 2.5 m
- the air conditioner 30 a having cooling ability corresponding to 4 kW is installed, and air of 700 m 3 is sent per hour at the time of cooling operation by cross flow fan in a weak wind mode.
- a blast air volume 2 per one blower is set to about 150 m 3 /h in an intermediate notch.
- the total blast air volume Vh which is sent into the building 1 in this embodiment is about 1200 m 3 /h, and this is larger than the air-conditioning air volume of the air conditioner 30 a .
- an air volume of 58% of the total blast air volume Vh is designed as an air-conditioning air volume (weak wind mode) which can be set in the air conditioner 30 a .
- an air-conditioning air volume 700 m 3 /h of the air conditioner 30 a is decreased to 46% of the total blast air volume Vh.
- wind speed of intake air current 43 of the blower is about 0.4 m/s, and the intake air current 43 of the blower (ventilation fan) is slower than the wind speed of the spout air current 33 a of the air conditioner 30 a .
- the spout air current 33 a of the air conditioner 30 a is sent by the cross flow fan, the current easily reaches a far location, and the spout air current 33 a is less prone to be sucked by the intake air current 43 of the blower which is generated when surrounding air is sucked by the operation of the sirocco fan 42 .
- the spout air current 33 a of the air conditioner 30 a reaches a location near the wall A 21 while being diffused, the spout air current 33 a is reversed and returns toward the wall B 23 along the stairs 8 , and the spout air current 33 a merges and mixed with the intake air current 43 of the blower having a large blast air volume.
- the suction ports of the first floor blower 40 and the second floor blower 41 are provided while avoiding the spout direction of the spout air current 33 a from the air conditioner 30 a , air-conditioned circulation current 45 which is substantially circulated in the stair case 12 and diffused is formed, and short circuit is less prone to be generated.
- a direction of the spout air current 33 a at the time of the heating operation is set to a downward direction more than a direction of the spout air current 33 a at the time of the cooling operation so that the spout air current 33 a is sent substantially in the horizontal direction.
- a place where the exhaust sections 52 are provided is not limited only if it is electrically conducted with the stair case 12 , but if the exhaust sections 52 are provided close to the ceiling 62 of the stair case 12 and close to the air conditioner 30 a , exhausted air current 53 is sucked into the larger number of air conditioners 30 a , and temperature of the intake air current 32 a becomes close to room temperature. Therefore, a difference between set temperature when the air conditioner 30 a is operated and actual temperature in the building 1 becomes smaller, and the operation of the air conditioners is controlled.
- the air-conditioned circulation current 45 flows such that it is opposed to the exhausted air current 53 and the intake air current 43 until the current 45 is reversed, and the current 45 involves surrounding air and is diffused. Therefore, as the air-conditioned circulation current 45 flows, temperature of the current 45 becomes higher than that of the spout air current 33 a of the air conditioner 30 a at the time of the cooling operation, and becomes lower than that of the spout air current 33 a at the time of the heating operation.
- the air-conditioned circulation current 45 is formed in the stair case 12 mainly on the side of the stairs 8
- the air-conditioned returning current 57 is formed in the stair case 12 mainly on the side of the corridor 11 on the second floor. Since the blast air volume sent to the rooms of the building 1 is larger than the air-conditioning air volume, spout air current 33 a of the air conditioner 30 a , the exhausted air current 56 on the first floor and the exhausted air current 53 on the second floor are mixed with each other in the stair case 12 . If the current groups are mixed with each other, a difference between temperature of the air-conditioned circulation current 45 and temperature of the rooms further becomes smaller.
- a ventilation slit (not shown) which brings the first floor and the second floor of the building 1 into conduction with each other may be provided in the corridor 11 so that current from the first floor easily merges.
- a difference between temperature of the spout air current 44 which is spouted to the rooms and temperature of the rooms is smaller than a difference between temperature of the spout air current 33 a of the air conditioner 30 a and temperature of the rooms. Therefore, persons existing in the rooms feel less stress caused by the difference between the temperature of the spout air current 44 and the temperature of the rooms, and comfortableness is enhanced.
- the air conditioner In the case of an air conditioner which controls the number of rotations of a compressor by an inverter, the air conditioner is operated such that when a blast air volume in a room is constant, a difference between spout temperature and room temperature when an air conditioning load is small becomes small.
- a compressor of the air conditioner 30 a is of the inverter type, comfortableness is not deteriorated even if a blast air volume to the room is decreased when the air conditioning load is small such as an intermediate season other than summer and winter. Therefore, there is no problem even if the total blast air volume Vh is decreased and the air-conditioning air volume becomes 70% or more of the total blast air volume Vh.
- All of the air conditioner 30 a , the first floor blowers 40 and the second floor blowers 41 may not be placed on the wall B 23 .
- One or some of the blowers may be provided in the stair case 12 of the first floor portion or may be provided on the partition wall 22 .
- a direction of the spout air current 33 a may be adjusted by a horizontal wind direction control plate of the air conditioner 30 a , air-conditioned circulation current 45 which merges with intake air current 43 of the blower can be formed, a wind passage of air-conditioned returning current 57 may be formed in a space other than a space in which the air-conditioned circulation current 45 is formed, and the air conditioner 30 a may be provided on the partition wall 22 . It is only necessary that air-conditioned circulation current 45 is formed in a longitudinal direction of a return compartment which is rectangular in shape as viewed from above.
- the air conditioner 30 a may be provided on each of the wall B 23 and the partition wall 22 , and it is possible to provide a heat source at the time of the heating operation such as a hot water radiator other than the air conditioner 30 a . It is only necessary that spout air current groups from two machines merge with each other and circulate in the stair case 12 , and the current groups are sucked into the first floor blowers 40 and the second floor blowers 41 . Therefore, the present design and construction method can be applied also to a developed air conditioning system in which hot water is generated by solar heat for example and this is used as a heat source.
- the total blast air volume Vh to the rooms is larger than the air-conditioning air volume. Therefore, a portion of air which returns to the return compartment from the rooms is sucked into the air conditioner 30 a , and remaining air is sufficiently mixed with spouted air of the air conditioner 30 a , and the air is conditioned and returned to the respective rooms.
- each of the blowers can cope with variation of the air conditioning load of the rooms.
- Capacity of the stair case 12 is about 16.2 m 3 , and the air conditioner 30 a forms the air-conditioned circulation current 45 to perform the air conditioning. Therefore, it is unnecessary to provide an air conditioner chamber for exclusive use. If the air-conditioned circulation current 45 is formed, the capacity of the return compartment may be less than this, but capacity of a general stair case is sufficient as capacity of the return compartment, and it is easy to compose the air conditioner 30 a , the first floor blowers 40 , the second floor blowers 41 , the exhaust sections 52 and the discharge section 55 .

- the current 92 flows such that it is opposed to the exhausted air current 89 and the air-conditioned returning current 93 , the current 92 involves the surrounding air and is diffused. Therefore, as a flowing distance becomes longer, temperature of the air-conditioned circulation current 92 becomes higher than that of the spout air current 33 b of the air conditioner 30 b at the time of cooling operation, and becomes lower than temperature of the spout air current 33 b at the time of the heating operation.
- the persons open the entrance door 70 from outside of the building 61 and enter the rooms, they touch the air-conditioned circulation current 92 having temperature which is lower than that of the room A 63 , the room B 64 and the living room 3 at the time of cooling operation, and which is higher than that of the room A 63 , the room B 64 and the living room 3 at the time of heating operation. Therefore, hotness and coldness felt by the persons outside can be softened, and it is also possible to prevent outside air which enters from the entrance door 70 from directly entering the room A 63 , the room B 64 and the living room 3 .
- a heat exchange ventilator is disposed for ventilation on a steady basis, but if the ceiling 62 of the entrance 2 is provided with an outdoor air spout port of the ventilator, air is mixed with air-conditioned circulation current 92 and is sent to the room A 63 and the room B 64 .
- the entrance door 70 When the entrance door 70 is opened, outdoor air which is spouted from the heat exchange ventilator has high static pressure, and the air easily flows out from the rooms through the opening of the entrance door 70 . Therefore, an amount of outside air which enters can further be reduced.
- moving spaces of people are utilized in the building. Since residents do not stay long in these spaces, machines can be disposed so that performance of the air conditioner and the blower can easily be exerted, and these spaces are places where operation noise of these machines is less prone to affect residents. Further, it is easy to store the blowers.
- the air conditioner 30 a is disposed above the corridor 11 of the stair case 12 , and air is spouted substantially in the horizontal direction. Therefore, spout air current 33 a does not directly hit persons who go back and forth through the stair case 12 .
- the air conditioning system can also be applied to air conditioning of buildings such as commercial facilities and hospitals having large floor areas.

FIGS. 3 to 5 , thestair case 12 is surrounded by aside wall 20 of the stairs 8, a wall A21 reached when proceeding up the stairs 8 from the first floor, apartition wall 22 existing between the rooms A13, B14, C15 on the second floor, and a wall B23 which is opposed to the wall A21. A distance between the wall A21 and the wall B23 is about 3.8 m, and a width between the stairs 8 and thecorridor 11 is about 0.9 m. Since a center size of a pillar in an architectural design drawing is used and a size in which a thickness of a wall is not taken into account is described, “about” is added to the sizes. This rule is applied also to the following size descriptions. - A
handrail 24 is mounted on thecorridor 11 on the side of the stairs 8. Thehandrail 24 is composed of ahorizontal crosspiece 25 and vertical crosspieces 26.Slits 27 exist between the vertical crosspieces 26. Asimilar handrail 28 is mounted on the stairs 8 on the side of a space of the first floor. - An
air conditioner 30 a is placed on an upper side of the wall B23 of thestair case 12 close to theside wall 20. Thisair conditioner 30 a is a wall-mounted indoor unit of a separate-type air conditioner which is connected to an outdoor unit (not shown). Thisair conditioner 30 a has a function to set a blast air volume of the indoor unit as an air-conditioning air volume like strong wind, intermediate wind and weak wind. A suction port through which intake air current 32 a is sucked is provided in anupper surface 31 of theair conditioner 30 a. A spout port through which spout air current 33 a is spouted is provided in a lower portion of a front surface of theair conditioner 30 a. The spout port is provided with a vertical winddirection control plate 34. The vertical winddirection control plate 34 is set such that this spouts spout air current 33 a substantially in a horizontal direction. Here, the expression “substantially in a horizontal direction” includes a downward direction within 15′ from the horizontal direction. The spout port is provided with a horizontal wind direction control plate (not shown). The horizontal wind direction control plate is set such that this spouts spout air current 33 a toward the wall A21 substantially parallel to theside wall 20. -
First floor blowers second floor blowers first floor blowers second floor blowers air conditioner 30 a. The fourfirst floor blowers 40 are provided, and the foursecond floor blower 41 are provided. One of the firstfloor air ducts 10 is connected to one of thefirst floor blowers 40, and one of the secondfloor air ducts 19 is connected to one of thesecond floor blowers 41. -
Sirocco fans 42 are provided in thefirst floor blowers 40 and thesecond floor blowers 41. Air is sucked from thestair case 12, the sucked air flows through the firstfloor air ducts 10 and the secondfloor air ducts 19, and is spouted into the rooms in thebuilding 1. If air is sucked from thestair case 12, intake air current 43 is generated. The sucked air flows through the firstfloor air ducts 10 and the secondfloor air ducts 19 as spout air current 44. - The
first floor blowers second floor blowers - Each of the rooms A13, B14, C15 on the second floor is provided with a
lower clearance 51 of adoor 50 which is an entrance from thestair case 12, andexhaust sections 52 located close to aceiling 62 which is higher than theair conditioner 30 a of thepartition wall 22. Exhausted air current 53 of the second floor is formed in thelower clearance 51 and theexhaust sections 52. An opening which is in communication with thestair case 12 is provided in each of the rooms one the first floor. This opening corresponds to adischarge section 55 to thestair case 12, and exhausted air current 56 of the first floor is formed in this opening. - Hence, the
stair case 12 becomes a return compartment where air groups discharged from the plurality of rooms in thebuilding 1 which is composed of theliving room 3, the kitchen 4, a room A13, a room B14 and a room C15 merge with each other. That is, thestair case 12 which becomes the return compartment is adjacent to theliving room 3, the kitchen 4, the room A13, the room B14 and the room C15. - Blast air volumes of air which is sent to the
living room 3, the kitchen 4, the room A13, the room B14 and the room C15 are determined by volumes of theliving room 3, the kitchen 4, the room A13, the room B14 and the room C15 (blast air volume determining step). A total blast air volume (total blast air volume is called Vh hereinafter) which is total of the blast air volumes to theliving room 3, the kitchen 4, the room A13, the room B14 and the room C15 determined in the blast air volume determining step is calculated (total blast air volume calculating step). Air-blowing ability and the number of blowers which send air to theliving room 3, the kitchen 4, the room A13, the room B14 and the room C15 are selected from the blast air volumes determined by the blast air volume determining step. In this embodiment, the blast duct composes a portion of the blower. That is, the blast air volume used for selecting the blower is a blast air volume of air which is spouted from the spout grill (air intake section) through the blast duct. The blast air volume which is required for conditioning air is preferably at least 13 m3/h or more per 2.5 m3 of the room and ideally, about 20 m3/h, and the blast air volume is adjusted in accordance with a size and a load of the room. In this embodiment, since the room A13 is larger than the room B14, the two spout grills 18 a, 18 b are provided, and air is sent by theblowers - The air-conditioning ability of the
air conditioner 30 a is determined by air conditioner load calculation concerning the building 1 (air-conditioning ability determining step). - That is, the air conditioning load is calculated based on transferred heat which enters from the wall, the window, the ceiling and the like, radiant heat of solar radiation which penetrates a window glass, heat and moisture generated from a person existing in the room, heat generated from illumination and a machine tool, and heat quantity and moisture generated from air taken from outside and draft as the air conditioning load (Haruo YAMADA, “Freezing and air conditioning”, Japan, Kabushiki Kaisha Yokendo, Mar. 20, 1975, pages 240 to 247). More room is given to this load calculation result, the
air conditioner 30 a of theentire building 1 is selected from air conditioners which are lineup in terms of ability, and theentire building 1 is air-conditioned. - An optimal air-conditioning air volume (optimal air-conditioning air volume is called Vq hereinafter) of the
air conditioner 30 a is determined from the total blast air volume Vh calculated in the total blast air volume calculating step (air-conditioning air volume determining step). - The optimal air-conditioning air volume Vq is an air volume of 50% or less of the total blast air volume Vh, and is 70% or less at the most, and is an air volume where the
air conditioner 30 a can exhibit ability in accordance with the air conditioning load. - The
air conditioner 30 a includes air-conditioning ability which is determined by the air-conditioning ability determining step, and a model of theair conditioner 30 a which can set an air-conditioning air volume which is equal to or less than the optimal air-conditioning air volume Vq determined by the air-conditioning air volume determining step is selected. - If a total volume of a room where air therein is to be conditioned is small, a minimum air-conditioning air volume which can be set by the
air conditioner 30 a may be larger, in some cases, than the optimal air-conditioning air volume Vq which is determined by the air-conditioning air volume determining step. In this case, the total blast air volume Vh of the blower is increased so that an air volume which is equal to or less than 70% of the total blast air volume Vh can be set by theair conditioner 30 a. - That is, in order to maintain the air-conditioning ability of the
air conditioner 30 a, the air-conditioning air volume of theair conditioner 30 a is not decreased more than necessary, and the blast air volume into thebuilding 1 is increased to a value which is equal to or larger than 20 m3/h per 2.5 m3 of the room so that the minimum blast air volume which can be set by theair conditioner 30 a becomes equal to or less than 50% of the total blast air volume Vh. - The method of increasing the blast air volume into the building is not limited to the increasing method of the blast air volume into the respective rooms, and it is also effective to send air also to a space under floor and an attic space where airproof and heat insulating properties against outside of the room are secured, and to provide an opening between the under floor space and the attic space and the return compartment to circulate conditioned air. Since the air conditioning load of the building itself is not varied even if the number of ventilation locations in the building and the blast air volume of the blower are too much, the above method does not affect the air-conditioning ability almost at all.
- In this embodiment, a floor area of the
building 1 is about 97.7 m2, a height of the ceiling is 2.5 m, theair conditioner 30 a having cooling ability corresponding to 4 kW is installed, and air of 700 m3 is sent per hour at the time of cooling operation by cross flow fan in a weak wind mode. In each of thefirst floor blowers 40 and thesecond floor blowers 41, ablast air volume 2 per one blower is set to about 150 m3/h in an intermediate notch. The total blast air volume Vh which is sent into thebuilding 1 in this embodiment is about 1200 m3/h, and this is larger than the air-conditioning air volume of theair conditioner 30 a. That is, in this embodiment, an air volume of 58% of the total blast air volume Vh is designed as an air-conditioning air volume (weak wind mode) which can be set in theair conditioner 30 a. Although it is not explained in this embodiment, if air supply to a space under floor at about 300 m3/h is added for example, the total blast air volume Vh becomes about 1500 m3/h. Therefore, an air-conditioning air volume 700 m3/h of theair conditioner 30 a is decreased to 46% of the total blast air volume Vh. - In the above-described configuration, if the
air conditioner 30 a is operated while setting the temperature in thebuilding 1, temperature of the intake air current 32 a is detected and the operation of the air conditioner of a cooling or heating operation is carried out. The conditioned air becomes spout air current 33 a of theair conditioner 30 a, and the air is spouted toward the wall A21 substantially parallel to theside wall 20. If thefirst floor blower 40 and thesecond floor blower 41 are operated, intake air current 43 and spout air current 44 of the blowers are generated. - As compared with wind speed of 3 to 5 m/s of spout air current 33 a of the
air conditioner 30 a, wind speed of intake air current 43 of the blower (ventilation fan) is about 0.4 m/s, and the intake air current 43 of the blower (ventilation fan) is slower than the wind speed of the spout air current 33 a of theair conditioner 30 a. Further, since the spout air current 33 a of theair conditioner 30 a is sent by the cross flow fan, the current easily reaches a far location, and the spout air current 33 a is less prone to be sucked by the intake air current 43 of the blower which is generated when surrounding air is sucked by the operation of thesirocco fan 42. Therefore, most portion of the spout air current 33 a of theair conditioner 30 a reaches a location near the wall A21 while being diffused, the spout air current 33 a is reversed and returns toward the wall B23 along the stairs 8, and the spout air current 33 a merges and mixed with the intake air current 43 of the blower having a large blast air volume. Hence, if the suction ports of thefirst floor blower 40 and thesecond floor blower 41 are provided while avoiding the spout direction of the spout air current 33 a from theair conditioner 30 a, air-conditioned circulation current 45 which is substantially circulated in thestair case 12 and diffused is formed, and short circuit is less prone to be generated. - Specific gravity of the spout air current 33 a in the heating operation is lighter than that in the cooling operation and the spout air current 33 a easily rise. Therefore, it is preferable that a direction of the spout air current 33 a at the time of the heating operation is set to a downward direction more than a direction of the spout air current 33 a at the time of the cooling operation so that the spout air current 33 a is sent substantially in the horizontal direction.
- If air is sent to the plurality of rooms of the
building 1, a portion of the air from the rooms A13, B14, C15 on the second floor returns to thestair case 12 as exhausted air current 53 on the second floor and as exhausted air current 56 on the first floor from the rooms on the first floor. At this time, since theexhaust sections 52 open in the vicinity of theceiling 62, most portion of the exhausted air current 53 on the second floor forms air-conditioned returning current 57 which flows toward theair conditioner 30 a along theceiling 62, and the most portion merges with the intake air current 32 a of theair conditioner 30 a. Hence, theair conditioner 30 a detects air temperature which is close to temperature in the rooms and the operation of theair conditioner 30 a is controlled. A place where theexhaust sections 52 are provided is not limited only if it is electrically conducted with thestair case 12, but if theexhaust sections 52 are provided close to theceiling 62 of thestair case 12 and close to theair conditioner 30 a, exhausted air current 53 is sucked into the larger number ofair conditioners 30 a, and temperature of the intake air current 32 a becomes close to room temperature. Therefore, a difference between set temperature when theair conditioner 30 a is operated and actual temperature in thebuilding 1 becomes smaller, and the operation of the air conditioners is controlled. - The air-conditioned circulation current 45 flows such that it is opposed to the exhausted air current 53 and the intake air current 43 until the current 45 is reversed, and the current 45 involves surrounding air and is diffused. Therefore, as the air-conditioned circulation current 45 flows, temperature of the current 45 becomes higher than that of the spout air current 33 a of the
air conditioner 30 a at the time of the cooling operation, and becomes lower than that of the spout air current 33 a at the time of the heating operation. - The air-conditioned circulation current 45 is formed in the
stair case 12 mainly on the side of the stairs 8, and the air-conditioned returning current 57 is formed in thestair case 12 mainly on the side of thecorridor 11 on the second floor. Since the blast air volume sent to the rooms of thebuilding 1 is larger than the air-conditioning air volume, spout air current 33 a of theair conditioner 30 a, the exhausted air current 56 on the first floor and the exhausted air current 53 on the second floor are mixed with each other in thestair case 12. If the current groups are mixed with each other, a difference between temperature of the air-conditioned circulation current 45 and temperature of the rooms further becomes smaller. - Air flows through the
slit 27 of thehandrail 24 or thehandrail 28 and helps this mixing. A portion of the exhausted air current 56 on the first floor merges also with the air-conditioned returning current 57 from a boundary between the stairs 8 and thecorridor 11. A ventilation slit (not shown) which brings the first floor and the second floor of thebuilding 1 into conduction with each other may be provided in thecorridor 11 so that current from the first floor easily merges. - In the air conditioning system of this embodiment, a difference between temperature of the spout air current 44 which is spouted to the rooms and temperature of the rooms is smaller than a difference between temperature of the spout air current 33 a of the
air conditioner 30 a and temperature of the rooms. Therefore, persons existing in the rooms feel less stress caused by the difference between the temperature of the spout air current 44 and the temperature of the rooms, and comfortableness is enhanced. - In the case of an air conditioner which controls the number of rotations of a compressor by an inverter, the air conditioner is operated such that when a blast air volume in a room is constant, a difference between spout temperature and room temperature when an air conditioning load is small becomes small. Hence, when a compressor of the
air conditioner 30 a is of the inverter type, comfortableness is not deteriorated even if a blast air volume to the room is decreased when the air conditioning load is small such as an intermediate season other than summer and winter. Therefore, there is no problem even if the total blast air volume Vh is decreased and the air-conditioning air volume becomes 70% or more of the total blast air volume Vh. - All of the
air conditioner 30 a, thefirst floor blowers 40 and thesecond floor blowers 41 may not be placed on the wall B23. One or some of the blowers may be provided in thestair case 12 of the first floor portion or may be provided on thepartition wall 22. A direction of the spout air current 33 a may be adjusted by a horizontal wind direction control plate of theair conditioner 30 a, air-conditioned circulation current 45 which merges with intake air current 43 of the blower can be formed, a wind passage of air-conditioned returning current 57 may be formed in a space other than a space in which the air-conditioned circulation current 45 is formed, and theair conditioner 30 a may be provided on thepartition wall 22. It is only necessary that air-conditioned circulation current 45 is formed in a longitudinal direction of a return compartment which is rectangular in shape as viewed from above. - The
air conditioner 30 a may be provided on each of the wall B23 and thepartition wall 22, and it is possible to provide a heat source at the time of the heating operation such as a hot water radiator other than theair conditioner 30 a. It is only necessary that spout air current groups from two machines merge with each other and circulate in thestair case 12, and the current groups are sucked into thefirst floor blowers 40 and thesecond floor blowers 41. Therefore, the present design and construction method can be applied also to a developed air conditioning system in which hot water is generated by solar heat for example and this is used as a heat source. - In the air conditioning system of the first embodiment, the total blast air volume Vh to the rooms is larger than the air-conditioning air volume. Therefore, a portion of air which returns to the return compartment from the rooms is sucked into the
air conditioner 30 a, and remaining air is sufficiently mixed with spouted air of theair conditioner 30 a, and the air is conditioned and returned to the respective rooms. - If the blast air volume is adjusted by the air volume adjustment means of the blowers, each of the blowers can cope with variation of the air conditioning load of the rooms.
- Capacity of the
stair case 12 is about 16.2 m3, and theair conditioner 30 a forms the air-conditioned circulation current 45 to perform the air conditioning. Therefore, it is unnecessary to provide an air conditioner chamber for exclusive use. If the air-conditioned circulation current 45 is formed, the capacity of the return compartment may be less than this, but capacity of a general stair case is sufficient as capacity of the return compartment, and it is easy to compose theair conditioner 30 a, thefirst floor blowers 40, thesecond floor blowers 41, theexhaust sections 52 and thedischarge section 55. -

The spout port is provided with a horizontal wind direction control plate (not shown). The horizontal wind direction control plate is set such that it spouts the spout air current 33 b toward theentrance wall 71 which is substantially parallel to the partition wall E76. - Three
ceiling blowers 80 and threeunderfloor blowers 81 are disposed below theair conditioner 30 b. One ceiling air duct 82 is connected to one of theceiling blowers 80, and oneunderfloor air duct 83 is connected to one of theunderfloor blowers 81. Sirocco fans (not shown) are provided in theceiling blower 80 and theunderfloor blower 81, air is sucked from thecorridor 66, the sucked air flows through a ceiling air duct 82 and anunderfloor air duct 83, and is spouted into the room A63, the room B64, theliving room 3 and the kitchen 4 in thebuilding 61. If air is sucked from thecorridor 66, intake air current 43 is generated. The sucked air flows through the ceiling air ducts 82 and theunderfloor air ducts 83 as spout air current 44. - The
ceiling blower 80 and theunderfloor blower 81 include air volume adjustment means. The air volume adjustment means is a notch switch which changes the number of rotations of a fan for example or a shutter (not shown) which adjusts an opening area of each of the suction ports of the spout grills 68 a to 68 f. - The
ceiling blower 80 and theunderfloor blower 81 are provided on a partition wall G84 which is parallel to the wall D75. That is, a space between the wall D75 and the partition wall G84 is a wind-sendingcompartment 85, and a wind-sendingopening 86 which is in communication with the wind-sendingcompartment 85 from thecorridor 66 is formed below the wall D75. This wind-sendingopening 86 substantially corresponds to an air suction section from thecorridor 66 of theceiling blower 80 and theunderfloor blower 81. Therefore, according to this configuration, it is unnecessary to provide theceiling blower 80 and theunderfloor blower 81 below theair conditioner 30 b. A sound absorbing material is provided in an inner wall of the wind-sendingcompartment 85. -
Exhaust sections 52 are provided in the vicinity of theceiling 62 which is higher than theair conditioner 30 b of the partition wall E76 and the partition wall F77, andlower clearances 88 ofdoors 87 which are entrances to the room A63 and the room B64 from thecorridor 66 are also provided. Exhausted air current 89 is formed in thelower clearances 88 and theexhaust sections 52. An opening which is in communication with theliving room 3 corresponds to andischarge section 90 to thecorridor 66, and exhausted air current 91 from theliving room 3 is formed in this opening. - Hence, the
corridor 66 becomes a return compartment where air groups discharged from the plurality of rooms, i.e., theliving room 3, the kitchen 4, the room A63 and the room B64 merge with each other. Thecorridor 66 which becomes the return compartment is adjacent to theliving room 3, the kitchen 4, the room A63 and the room B64. - Blast air volumes of air sent to the
living room 3, the kitchen 4, the room A63 and the room B64 are determined from capacity of theliving room 3, the kitchen 4, the room A63 and the room B64 (blast air volume determining step). Then, a total blast air volume Vh in which the blast air volumes of the air sent to theliving room 3, the kitchen 4, the room A63 and the room B64 determined by the blast air volume determining step are added up is calculated (total blast air volume calculating step). From the blast air volume determined by the blast air volume determining step, air-blowing ability and the number of the blowers which send wind to theliving room 3, the kitchen 4, the room A63 and the room B64 are selected. In the second embodiment, the blast duct composes a portion of the blower. That is, the blast air volume used for selecting the blowers is a blast air volume which is spouted from the spout grills (air intake sections) through the ducts. The blast air volume which is required for conditioning air is preferably at least 13 m3/h or more per 2.5 m3 of the room and ideally, about 20 m3/h, and the blast air volume is adjusted in accordance with a size and a load of the room. When the room is large, two or more blowers are placed, i.e., the spout grills are provided at two or more locations in some cases. - The air-conditioning ability of the
air conditioner 30 b is determined by air conditioning load calculation concerning the building 61 (air-conditioning ability determining step). - The optimal air-conditioning air volume Vq of the
air conditioner 30 b is determined from the total blast air volume Vh calculated by the total blast air volume calculating step (air-conditioning air volume determining step). - The
air conditioner 30 b has air-conditioning ability determined by the air-conditioning ability determining step, a model of theair conditioner 30 b is selected such that it can set the air-conditioning air volume which is equal to or less than the optimal air-conditioning air volume Vq determined by the air-conditioning air volume determining step. - If a total volume of a room where air therein is to be conditioned is small, a minimum air-conditioning air volume which can be set by the
air conditioner 30 b may be larger, in some cases, than the optimal air-conditioning air volume Vq which is determined by the air-conditioning air volume determining step. In this case, the total blast air volume Vh of the blower is increased so that an air volume which is equal to or less than 70% of the total blast air volume Vh can be set by theair conditioner 30 b. - That is, in order to maintain the air-conditioning ability of the
air conditioner 30 b, the air-conditioning air volume of theair conditioner 30 b is not decreased more than necessary, and the blast air volume into thebuilding 61 is increased to a value which is equal to or larger than 20 m3/h per 2.5 m3 of the room so that the minimum blast air volume which can be set by theair conditioner 30 b becomes equal to or less than 50, of the total blast air volume Vh. Even if the blast air volume of the blower is excessively large, this does not affect the air-conditioning ability. - In the super airtight and highly heat-insulated residential house of this embodiment, a floor area of the
building 61 is about 79.3 m2, a height of the ceiling is 2.5 m, theair conditioner 30 b having cooling ability corresponding to 3.6 kW is installed, and air of 510 m3 is sent per hour at the time of cooling operation by cross flow fan in a weak wind mode. In each of theceiling blower 80 and theunderfloor blower 81 which send wind to the rooms, a blast air volume per one blower is set to about 150 m3/h in an intermediate notch. The total blast air volume Vh which is sent into thebuilding 61 in this embodiment is about 900 m3/h, and this is larger than the air-conditioning air volume of theair conditioner 30 b. - That is, in this embodiment, an air volume of 57% of the total blast air volume Vh is designed as an air-conditioning air volume (weak wind mode) which can be set in the
air conditioner 30 b. - In the above-described configuration, if the
air conditioner 30 b is operated while setting the air conditioning temperature in theair conditioner 30 b, temperature of the intake air current 32 a is detected and the operation of the air conditioner of cooling or heating operation is carried out. The conditioned air becomes spout air current 33 b of theair conditioner 30 b, and the air is spouted toward theentrance wall 71 substantially parallel to the partition wall E76. Theceiling blower 80 and theunderfloor blower 81 are operated, and intake air current 43 and spout air current 44 of the blowers are generated. - In this embodiment, the
ceiling blower 80 and theunderfloor blower 81 are disposed on the back of the wind-sendingcompartment 85, and the wind-sendingcompartment 85 is provided with the sound absorbing material. Therefore, operation noise of theceiling blower 80 and theunderfloor blower 81 is less prone to leak toward thecorridor 66. Theair ducts 63 a, 63 b, 63 f and theair ducts - As compared with wind speed of 3 to 5 m/s of spout air current 33 b of the
air conditioner 30 b, wind speed of intake air current 43 of the blower (ventilation fan) is about 0.4 m/s, and the intake air current 43 of the blower (ventilation fan) is slower than the wind speed of the spout air current 33 b of theair conditioner 30 b. - Therefore, most portion of the spout air current 33 b of the
air conditioner 30 b reaches a location near theentrance wall 71, the spout air current 33 b is reversed and returns toward the wall D75 along thefloor 63, and the spout air current 33 b merges with the intake air current 43 of the blower. Hence, if the wind-sendingopening 86 is provided while avoiding the spout direction of the spout air current 33 b from theair conditioner 30 b, air-conditioned circulation current 92 is formed in thecorridor 66, and short circuit is less prone to be generated. - Depending upon a distance between the
air conditioner 30 b and theentrance wall 71, and also depending upon the setting of the air-conditioning air volume of theair conditioner 30 b, the following phenomenon may be generated. That is, most of the spout air current 33 b does not reach theentrance wall 71 and is diffused, the spout air current 33 b merges with the intake air current 43 of the blower, and air-conditioned circulation current 92 is formed. - If wind is sent to the room A63, the room B64, the
living room 3 and the kitchen 4 of thebuilding 61, the wind returns to thecorridor 66 as exhausted air current 89 and exhausted air current 91. At this time, since theexhaust sections 52 open in the vicinity of theceiling 62, most of the exhausted air current 89 forms air-conditioned returning current 93 which flows toward theair conditioner 30 b along theceiling 62, and the most of the exhausted air current 89 merges with the intake air current 32 a of theair conditioner 30 b. A portion of the air-conditioned returning current 93 is formed also by exhausted air current 91 which flows in the vicinity of theceiling 62 from theliving room 3. Theair conditioner 30 b detects air temperature close to temperature of the room A63, the room B64 and theliving room 3, and operation of theair conditioner 30 b is controlled. - Until the air-conditioned circulation current 92 is reversed, the current 92 flows such that it is opposed to the exhausted air current 89 and the air-conditioned returning current 93, the current 92 involves the surrounding air and is diffused. Therefore, as a flowing distance becomes longer, temperature of the air-conditioned circulation current 92 becomes higher than that of the spout air current 33 b of the
air conditioner 30 b at the time of cooling operation, and becomes lower than temperature of the spout air current 33 b at the time of the heating operation. - By the mixing between the spout air current 33 b of the
air conditioner 30 b and surrounding air, a difference between temperature of spout air current 44 which is spouted to the room A63, the room B64 and theliving room 3 and room temperature of the room A63, the room B64 and theliving room 3 becomes smaller than a difference between temperature of the spout air current 33 b of theair conditioner 30 b and room temperature of the room A63, the room B64 and theliving room 3. Therefore, persons existing in the rooms feel less stress caused by the difference between the temperature of the spout air current 44 and the temperature of the rooms, and comfortableness is enhanced. - Further, when the persons open the
entrance door 70 from outside of thebuilding 61 and enter the rooms, they touch the air-conditioned circulation current 92 having temperature which is lower than that of the room A63, the room B64 and theliving room 3 at the time of cooling operation, and which is higher than that of the room A63, the room B64 and theliving room 3 at the time of heating operation. Therefore, hotness and coldness felt by the persons outside can be softened, and it is also possible to prevent outside air which enters from theentrance door 70 from directly entering the room A63, the room B64 and theliving room 3. - Further, in a super airtight and highly heat-insulated residential house, a heat exchange ventilator is disposed for ventilation on a steady basis, but if the
ceiling 62 of theentrance 2 is provided with an outdoor air spout port of the ventilator, air is mixed with air-conditioned circulation current 92 and is sent to the room A63 and the room B64. When theentrance door 70 is opened, outdoor air which is spouted from the heat exchange ventilator has high static pressure, and the air easily flows out from the rooms through the opening of theentrance door 70. Therefore, an amount of outside air which enters can further be reduced. - When the building is large, it is possible to divide the inside space of the building into zones, and to use a combination of the above-described first and second embodiments.
- In both the first and second embodiments, moving spaces of people are utilized in the building. Since residents do not stay long in these spaces, machines can be disposed so that performance of the air conditioner and the blower can easily be exerted, and these spaces are places where operation noise of these machines is less prone to affect residents. Further, it is easy to store the blowers.
- Further, the
air conditioner 30 a is disposed above thecorridor 11 of thestair case 12, and air is spouted substantially in the horizontal direction. Therefore, spout air current 33 a does not directly hit persons who go back and forth through thestair case 12. - It is possible to easily condition air in the entire room using a moving space of a resident such as a stair case and a corridor. Further, since an inside space of a building can be divided into a plurality of zones in accordance with ability of an air conditioner and air can be conditioned, the air conditioning system can also be applied to air conditioning of buildings such as commercial facilities and hospitals having large floor areas.
